Kisumu - On the afternoon of Friday, July 14, 2023, Governor Anyang' Nyong'o was wheeled into a theatre at the Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Referral Hospital in Kisumu.

Here, the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) county boss underwent a successful spinal surgery.

"Everything has gone extremely well and I am grateful to the hospital CEO, George Rae, and his team for taking very good care of me," said Nyong'o.

Nyong'o, who has been recuperating at home after being discharged, was elated on the evening of Friday, August 11, after a group of Azimio La Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party visited him.

"Special appreciation to Azimio Leadership Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka, Martha Karua, and Gladys Wanga for checking on me. Mama Kisumu Dorothy Nyong’o and I are extremely grateful," Nyong'o captioned several photos of himself with the Azimio leaders.

Anyang' Nyong'o lauds medical facilities

Following the surgery, Nyong'o exuded confidence in the county's medical facilities.

"It is now very clear to me that even with the existing resources, both human and technical, we have the capacity to treat conditions that we sometimes shy away from and end up spending huge personal resources elsewhere," said Nyong'o as he lauded the healthcare facility for literally saving his back!

The Azimio leaders who visited Nyong'o were among thousands of mourners who included legislators and religious leaders at the inter-denominational requiem mass for victims of police brutality at the Jaramogi Park in Bondo.

ODM leader Raila Odinga and his wife Mama Ida Odinga were also in attendance.

Raila Odinga's new political strategy

During the event, Raila disclosed plans to change how they express displeasure with President William Ruto's administration.

Raila decried killings attributed to the police during the three-day anti-government protests, stating that there were many ways of killing a cat.

During the interdenominational requiem mass on Friday, August 11, in Bondo, the former prime minister declared that Kenya must be liberated.

Raila declared that the coalition party doesn't have to call their supporters to the streets for their voices to be heard.

The former premier observed that staying indoors was also a form of protest that would show the displeasure of most Kenyans.
